1 Creating Community Around Commuter Rail in Arvada Colorado Presented By Mike Elms, AICP Community Development Director City of Arvada Colorado

2 Arvada s s Location 10 miles west of Denver A first tier suburb

3 Arvada Facts Founded in 1870 Incorporated in 1904 Once the Celery Capital of US Site of first Colorado gold discovery Latest population estimate- 107,500

4 Regional Transportation District FasTracks Plan Denver voters approved sales tax increase to fund in 2004 Regionwide transit plan 122 miles rail 18 miles BRT 57 new stations

5 Gold Line Corridor Links Northwest Denver, western suburbs to Denver Union Station Three stations in Arvada EIS Record of Decision expected early 2009 One of two FasTracks corridors that qualifies for New Starts funding Part of PPP pilot project

6 Arvada s s Position in System Gold Line is inherently a commuter oriented corridor Challenge is how to create community in face of market pressure toward commuter Not all stations are equal in terms of capacity to create community

7 Arvada Station Planning Process Community based process Steering Committee Two workshops for each station Developer forum Public open house Plan adopted in August, 2007 Conscious effort to plan before Gold Line EIS

8 Principles of Good TOD Create a sense of place Pedestrian scaled environment Mix of uses and prices Each station is unique Increased density Community Vision Good neighborhood connections Create partnerships

9 Not All Stations Are Equal Stations play different roles Not always possible to create community, TOD at each station Important to focus your efforts, understand role of stations, how they support each other.

10 Sheridan Station Existing industrial area- short term market wants more low rise industrial Major chemical processing plant limits residential potential Substantial part of transit influence area located in Clear Creek floodway

11 Sheridan Station Plan Focus on employment, but more intensity Residential is subordinate Use part of transit influence area for large scale retail

12 Olde Town Station Olde Town is already a community Challenge is how to expand community, balancing desire for density/intensity with need to preserve historic character

13 Olde Town Station Plan Selective intensification of Olde Town proper- up to four stories Greater scale south of tracks where grade drops off Preserve Grand View Allow high density east of Wadsworth now zoned for Industrial Our best opportunity for good transit-oriented development Our heart, our crown jewel.

14 Kipling Station Substantially vacant One owner for vacant land Mainly residential potential and limited office/retail Red Rocks Community College nearby Realizing TOD potential requires cooperation with City of Wheat Ridge

15 Kipling Station Plan Mainly residential- supports the employment role of Sheridan and mixed-use role of Olde Town High density allowed, minimum density required Medium density at edge next to single family neighborhood Mixed-use next to station Encourage Red Rocks College to grow toward station to connect transit and education Goal is structured transit parking

16 How Stations Support Each Other Olde Town is our heart, our focus. It provides support to other stations and receives support from them Sheridan and Kipling are the arteries to the heart, but their unique focus help each support the other also.

17 Issues/Challenges Maintaining our vision over time Developing acceptance for increased density Financing Dealing with development in interim- short term market forces in conflict with long term goals Marketing our TOD opportunities-having people see Arvada in a new light

18 Arvada s s Strategy for Creating Community Be clear on what is most important- Olde Town Continued work on placemaking- nice streetscapes, public spaces Regulatory changes- mixed-use zoning and Olde Town Design Guidelines, more equitable park and school fees Connect community with stations- bike and pedestrian connections

19 Arvada s s Strategy for Creating Community Parking/transportation demand strategy for Olde Town Olde Town Market Demand and Infrastructure Finance Strategy Market our opportunities
